What games are you currently playing?

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Playing Destiny - PS4 - it's shallow and has many dull elements but I can't stop playing the effin thing

Things I love about it:

1. The Ghosts, even though the name is crappy
2. The mechanics / controls of shooting stuff
3. Scenery / gfx / sfx etc
4. Meeting up with randoms (when my connection doesn't constantly get cut by their servers...(rage!)
5. the little wars that start between rival mobs, the panic, THE CARNAGE!
6. The weaps. vehicles and gear

Things I dislike intensely:

1. That AI
2. The missions
3. The voice acting - none of it seems to fit the characters (such as they are)
4. The characters
5. I can over look the lack of a story if they'd just make the strikes / missions interesting. You don't get much for 500 meelions these days.
6. Server connection crapping out constantly
7. Other stuff I can't think of right now but have raged at the screen for on a few occasions
8. The shit loots. For a casual it simply doesn't pay to play much at all.

It seems blatantly obvious (to the point "why disguise something as light levels when") that as you progress past 20 you [obviously] don't get the XP portion of the mission completions etc but strangely the drops you get just happen to increase your light level by roughly the same amount...hmm.

Hope they fix this game soon.

Hyrule Warriors! - WiiU - best "warriors" game I've played in years. I approve of the Zelda-licensed skin. My son loves this too.

WoW - PC - still don't hate me!

FFXIV - PS4 - occasionally, not sure why I'm still subbed to it tbh...just finding Pugilist really boring atm and should go finish off the other two magic classes (done BLM already)..or is it because post-job cap is dull unless you have enough time to play the larger end-game stuff?

Also my FC is basically dead in the water.

Humbug.

Lack of trading is the stupidest thing about Destiny really.

As for classes in FFXI. A lot of classes don't get interesting or fun until the late 30's. Well except for Paladin and Bard. They never start being fun. Ever.

You've clearly never played a Tarudin.

I don't mind the lack of trading in Destiny nearly as much as I do in Diablo 3. The bigger peeve to me is the amount of grinding you have to do to level up your gear, farming materials on top of EXP blows. The lack of loot is also pretty shitty, but at least they are "buffing" the cryptard so he at least won't downgrade engrams anymore.

I meant XIV, but thanks for pointing out that typo .

Played a little of Hyrule Warriors, walked away pleasantly surprised how well the game played. No dungeons to explore, but pretty much everything else feels faithfully implemented, right down to how cuccos function.

Finally beat the Vault of Glass, what a slog.

The soundtrack is pretty nice too.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

So this arrived today:



US version though because Atlus can't bring a game to the EU within a reasonable timeframe without NISA. Sadly I have to make a US PSN account to play the Adachi storyline given it was added as DLC in Japan, and not put onto the disc for the US release because fuck you, give me money.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

If you have a US PSN account, Adachi and Marie are free downloads this week... I don't even have a PS3 and I pinned those down.

[Firewind]

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Ah, they're free? Didn't realise that. It's mostly the Adachi stuff I'm interested in anyway since if I remember correctly, Marie doesn't have much to do with the plot anyway.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Just added them to my account last night through PSN, I'd grab them while you still can before US PSN updates Tuesday. Margaret is paid DLC, sadly.

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Which means it will be half of the price of what we will pay in the UK. Perfect. I fucking love the current exchange rate. The US 3DS I bought a few months back has already seen a return on that investment too if you go by how much I've saved on importing games from the US and using the US eShop.

Gaming is so cheap in the US I'm tempted to move there just for that .

Re: What games are you currently playing?

Gas is a lot cheaper here too, but then you'd have to get used to driving on the right side of the road.

You get used to switching sides pretty quickly, honestly.
